Supply and use tables, detail level, provincial and territorial
Provincial and territorial detail-level supply and use tables (SUT), tracing the production, intermediate input consumption, trade margins, and final demand of goods and services across Canadian provinces.
About this dataset
- Supply and use matrix flows (Supply, Use)
- Valuations (Basic prices, Purchasers' prices)
- 580 Input-Output Industry Classifications (IOIC)
- 558 Input-Output Product Classifications (IOPC)
- 14 Canadian jurisdictions (Canada, 10 provinces, 3 territories)
- Reference period (Annual, 2010 to 2022)
- Bilateral destination of interprovincial trade (interprovincial trade flows are recorded as totals by province)
- Current-year preliminary estimates (benchmarked with a 3-year publication lag)
- Quarterly or monthly frequencies
Measurement notes
- Basic price valuation excludes trade and transport margins and net taxes on products, measuring the revenue received by producers.
- Purchaser price valuation includes all wholesale, retail, transport margins and product taxes paid by final consumers.
- The full upstream table contains 15.9M datapoints across 1.6M series (404 MB zip). The observatory profiles a representative provincial aggregate slice (280 observations) via StatCan WDS API.

The Foundation of Interprovincial Trade Models
Supply and Use Tables (SUT) are the empirical bedrock of interprovincial trade analysis and the OECD/WTO Trade in Value Added (TiVA) databases. By tracking how each industry's production absorbs intermediate inputs from other sectors and provinces, SUT allows researchers to compute interprovincial spillover multipliers—measuring, for instance, how an expansion in Alberta oil extraction drives manufacturing demand in Ontario and financial service demand in Quebec.
SUT Detail Level: Accounting Rigor & Publication Lag
Because Table 36-10-0478 balances 580 industries and 558 products across 14 jurisdictions with zero statistical discrepancy (Total Supply = Total Use), the data requires extensive reconciliation of corporate tax files, survey returns, and trade manifests. Consequently, finalized detail-level SUT tables are published with an approximate 3-year lag (2022 is the latest benchmark release as of 2025/2026).
Notes
Canadian gross economic supply reached $6.01 Trillion CAD in 2022, with Ontario (41.5%) and Quebec (19.4%) accounting for over 60% of domestic production while the four largest provinces generated over 90% of national supply.
